Why do I have to receive a rookie ship every time I dock in a pod? I end up having a bunch of them scattered around the universe and this just clutters my asset list since I might have listings with only one rookie ship. Why not only give me one if I dock in my home system? If i really want to stock pile them so I can kill a Vexor with an army of Velators than I can go to my home system and 'ask' for them.

If you're gonna post here thinking your idea is the greatest thing since bacon and that it will save EVE and possibly all humankind with it, you're gonna have a bad time.

It's a gift, designed for newbies primarily, when their only ship is gone. Just trash it and problem is solved.

That's why I suggested to only give one in home systems, since a newbie will probably spend most of his/her time there. After he/she endeavors to other systems, a rookie ship will probably be useless from there on.

Of course I trash it every time I get one, but why should I? It's annoying to do it every time I dock. Plus I get the insurance mail too.

Insurance companies are always trying to get new customers, think of the crappy ship as like... a toaster.
